LOSSIEMOUTH has her stamina to prove but there aren't signs that she won't stay and on the back of an impressive winning return here she can end a five-year losing run for Willie Mullins in this contest. Echoes In Rain, who has been chasing home State Man this term, is a solid alternative for the yard. Last year's runner-up Love Envoi could be the best hope for the home team.
